(c) vpve=gpge×RpRe=2×2=2vp=2×ve=2×11.2=22.4 km/s

The escape velocity from the earth is about 11 km/second. The escape velocity from a planet having twice the radius and the same mean density as the earth, is

Explanation

(a)

 ve=2GMR=2GR×43πR3ρ=R83πGρ So if p = constant, veα R.Since the planet having double radius in comparison to earth,Therefore the escape velocity becomes twice i.e. 22 km/s.

 

What should be the velocity of earth due to rotation about its own axis so that the weight at equator become 3/5 of initial value. Radius of earth on equator is 6400 km
